still having ignition issues....
My 95 f150 v8 5.8 is still giving me hell. At random, it will die, not running out of fuel, it just quits. Sometimes it will start right up but sometimes it will take hours. I have replaced pluggs wires cap rotor coil and mass air sensor. I have tried to find a pattern but none present themselves. It does it hot or cold day or night. Please help!

I take it you have no spark when it dies.
If so and you have power at the ignition coil then I would look at the PIP sensor in the distributor.

Not sure if the 95's have a remote solenoid on the passenger side fender, but I had a similar problem, and replacing the solenoids fixed it.
